Table 2. Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and arterial blood gases recorded during neurophysiology experiments in anesthetized rats.
Values are means ± SE. Data were obtained during baseline conditions and brief hypoxic challenge. The results of the two-way repeated measures ANOVA are provided for group (C2HS vs. sparing), condition (baseline vs. hypercapnia), and the interaction term.
